Reviews Summary
Customers say these shoes are incredibly comfortable with a spacious toe box that allows toes to spread naturally. The lightweight design and zero-drop construction appeal to those seeking a barefoot feel with ground connection. Many reviews highlight their versatility—from everyday wear to travel, hiking, and athletic activities. Users appreciate the quality construction and durability, with some reporting multiple pairs owned over years. Common feedback mentions a slight break-in period and that shoelaces run long. A few note the cork insoles may require alternative options, and some find them narrow in the midfoot despite the wide toe box. Overall, customers praise the balance of minimalist design with comfort and support.

    Great Shors

    Love these shoes. Started with Primal 2’s then went to Primal 3’s. I’m wearing the soles out because I walk a lot. Best shoes that I’ve ever owned!

    My new favorite

    Found these shoes on Govx. Could not be any happier. I’ve tried and like other brands, but these shoes are over taken any other. I will buy new insoles and a new pair. Need to get all the colors. They are comfortable wearing in work and out with my wife. Going to wear to a theme park fingers crossed that they will be comfortable.

    Pretty good

    I love these shoes so don’t hear this wrong but, I do have some suggestions for changes. The grip is great on cement or dirt or carpet but it’s not on ceramic it’s very slippery after rain. The heal also started to bend after like two weeks. Great overall though, they’re light, flexible and great for working out.
